About Crown & Pepper Croydon

Crown & Pepper Croydon is an Asian fusion restaurant and community gastro pub in Croydon, at 242 High St, established in 2009. The kitchen cooks Indian and Chinese dishes side by side, an Indo Chinese menu that includes chilli-heavy plates. A bar handles drink orders, with craft draught beer and cocktails. Live sport plays on 11 HD screens, carried through Sky and BT Sports, so the pub can serve as a place to watch major events over a meal. The Buddha Lounge can be hired for private events and holds up to 100 guests, which suits large groups.

Customer Review Summary

The complaints are specific. One diner found the sweet and sour chicken old, dry and rubbery, and felt unwelcome after being given no menu and dirty looks. A delivery order brought dry, flavourless chicken noodles, hard and undercooked egg fried rice, and a chili chicken that tasted noticeably sweet. Reviewers also describe the place as cheap and cheerful, and one says it looks odd from outside but is wonderful inside.

    “Walked in, we were not helped or given menus. The guy was kinda rude, kept giving me dirty looks. Did not feel welcome, not sure what I did wrong. I was nice and only asked for a menu. ? My husband ordered the butter chicken, which he enjoyed. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken, which is one of their 'house specials.' It was not good. The battered chicken was old, dry and rubbery. It seemed it was reheated chicken from yesterday that had been pulled out of a freezer. The sauce was also meh. Very disappointed by my experience here and will not be going back.”

    “We had such a wonderful experience at the Indian and Chinese restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, full of flavour, and clearly prepared with care. Every dish we tried was excellent, and you can really tell the chef takes great pride in their work. A special thank you to the chef for the amazing food and to the entire team for the outstanding service. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our meal, making us feel genuinely looked after. I would happily recommend this restaurant to anyone staying here or visiting the area. If you enjoy authentic Indian and Chinese cuisine with fantastic service, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you all for your hard work and hospitality. We will definitely be back!”

    “⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently visited Crown and Pepper and I have to say, the experience was truly outstanding, and that is largely thanks to Rohit and Dev. From the moment we walked in, these two made us feel so welcome and at ease. Their hospitality was absolutely fantastic warm, genuine, and attentive without being overbearing. You could tell they truly care about every guest who walks through the door. The service they provided was top-notch from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble, and they went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing time. Crown and Pepper should consider themselves very lucky to have people like Rohot and Dev on their team. They are a true asset to the restaurant and are exactly the kind of hospitable, caring individuals that make a Drink & Dining experience truly memorable. Highly recommend visiting , and when you do, you'll be in great hands! 🙌”

    “We've walked past this pub a few times but been a bit unsure as it looks a bit odd from the outside... But it's absolutely wonderful inside. Food was amazing (we had curries) and the staff are really friendly and welcoming. A must try”
